Orlando Fla April 30 2009

A sweaty, shirtless man on LSD was shot with a stun gun several times after trying to enter SeaWorld Orlando without paying, according to an Orange County sheriff’s report released Wednesday.
Nicholas Casanova, 23, of Miami, wielded a more than 30-inch-wide recycling bin cover as a shield and repeatedly shouted “never, never!” during a scuffle with deputies about 2:45 p.m. Tuesday.
Minutes before the scuffle, Deputy Christopher Barrette, a uniformed, off-duty deputy, spotted Casanova trying to enter the park without paying. He was shirtless, which is a violation of park rules, and sweated profusely, the report states.
Barrette approached him, and Casanova left. He re-entered about 5 minutes later and exited, and the deputy approached again. Casanova ignored him, so the deputy touched him on his right arm.
Casanova broke away, beginning the scuffle that would land him in the Orange County Jail.
Worried Casanova would act violently against nearby park guests, the deputy tackled him, and a security guard sat on his legs. Casanova broke free, and Barrette shocked him with a stun gun.
“Never,” Casanova said.
Barrette shot him again.
“Never,” Casanova repeated. Barrette fired once more.
“OK, OK,” Casanova replied.
But when Barrette tried to handcuff him, Casanova fought, and Barrette received a minor cut from the handcuff.
Casanova made his way to a bench near a recycling can as Barrette shocked him repeatedly, then grabbed the can’s lid and swung it at the deputy. Afterward, he ran to a rope fence and tried to jump into a nearby water feature.
Deputies used the rope to restrain Casanova. He was taken to Dr. P. Philips Hospital, where tests showed he had LSD in his bloodstream.
Casanova faces counts of battery on a law-enforcement officer, battery on a security officer, resisting an officer with violence, disorderly conduct, aggravated assault on a law-enforcement officer, and assault on a licensed uniformed security officer.

A former security guard at a Johnstown business is accused of stealing nearly $50,000 in company computers.
And as police closed in, authorities said, he took 80 of the computers into a wooded area and set them on fire.
Nathan Patrick Binnie, 26, of Iolite Avenue, Johnstown, was charged by city detectives with burglary, arson, criminal trespass, receiving stolen property, tampering with evidence and conspiracy.
In an affidavit of probable cause, police said that 94 computers – towers, monitors, keyboards and a mouse for each – were stolen from a storage facility of Intermedia Marketing, 1003 Broad St.
Binnie was a security guard and quit after it was discovered the equipment was missing, police said.
Witnesses told police they saw a blue van in the area during the week in January when the equipment was stolen. That led police to question Binnie, who drove a blue Dodge Caravan.
At least two people said Binnie stashed some of the computers at their homes, police said.
Binnie later admitted taking the equipment, authorities said.
After news of the incident got out, he took about 80 of the machines into a wooded area behind St. Therese Roman Catholic Church on Decker Avenue and set them on fire, authorities said.
Binnie was arraigned Monday by District Judge Max Pavlovich of Richland Township, the on-call magistrate, and sent to the Cambria County Prison after failing to post $50,000 bond

GREENSBORO, N.C. APRIL 30 2009 — Police in a North Carolina city have charged 17 security guards at nightclubs with operating without a proper license.
The News & Record of Greensboro reported that police targeted six clubs over the weekend. The sweep occurred after three major crimes, including a homicide, happened at clubs since Easter. Assistant Greensboro Police Chief Dwight Crotts said the checks weren’t in response to the crimes and already had been planned.
State law requires that anyone working as a security guard or bouncer be licensed or be employees of the club where they are working.
Police said two bouncers were armed and another was charged with possession with intent to sell marijuana.

Tulsa OK April 30 2009

There’s a new security force in some high crime neighborhoods. It’s a partnership that officers say targets a source of the problem in many crime-ridden areas and apartment complexes.
It’s an effort between Tulsa police officers and security guards at housing complexes. Officers say its good for those who live in the complexes and those who live nearby. James Stevenson lives just doors down from one of the housing complexes in North Tulsa and knows a lot of people who live there, he says they too are fed up with violence. He says he’s lost several friends in senseless shootings, one of his friends remains in critical condition from the shooting that happened at a housing complex last week, police say an innocent victim.
“We’ve been having problems with a lot of the complexes in north Tulsa ,” says Tulsa Police Officer Heather Weakley. Officers are now expanding their efforts to take a proactive approach to stop the crime in a place where they say it often starts.
“We know a lot of the problems are from those sources,” says Weakley. “Tulsa police does strive to have a good working relationship with the complexes.”
Now officers are working with security guards at the complexes. “It makes it a lot easier they’re are eyes and ears,” says Weakley.
Aaron is the Vice-President of “Global Elite Security” he supervises more than thirty security officers in housing complexes throughout Tulsa. He’s seen the difference working together can make.
“It is helpful it does decrease on the amount of crime, drugs, and violence.” Now James and others hope it makes a difference in their community.
“I know a lot of this crimes that’s going on they can stop it,” says Stevenson.

Mobile Al April 29 2009
Al.com ATV riders are chewing up terrain and tax dollars, according to state and local officials, who are cracking down on riders.
All-terrain vehicles roaring down roadsides are causing erosion and landslides and wreaking havoc on construction projects, according to the Alabama Department of Transportation.
About a month ago, the department extended an offer to the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office: Patrol state and federal roadways for illegal ATV driving, and ALDOT will pay the deputies’ hourly wages while they search, according to Sheriff’s Office officials
Since then, deputies have issued 43 trespassing citations to ATV drivers, according to ALDOT records as of late last week.
The citations have been for riding along Interstate 10 and the unopened portion of the new U.S. 98, according to the records.
Recently, deputies arrested three ATV drivers for trespassing. One was taken into custody for a previous warrant, and another on a drug possession charge, according to ALDOT.
“We get eight to 10 calls a day from people complaining about ATV riders,” said Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Wayne Goolsby, who oversees the ATV patrols. “And we probably make two to three arrests each weekend.”
Goolsby’s rule: “If it’s not your property or you don’t have a prior agreement, you’re not supposed to be on it.”
First-time offenders are issued a warning, and Goolsby said their names are put on a computerized list to ferret out repeat offenders. More than 400 names are on the list.
Second-time offenders are ticketed and can be arrested, Goolsby said.
ALDOT spokeswoman Rebecca Leigh White said the department is pushing enforcement in Mobile County alone because “that’s where we are predominantly seeing damage, and in our initial effort, we are concentrating on where the damage has been most severe.
Tony Harris, special assistant to ALDOT’s director, said that ATV’s have caused more than $300,000 in damage statewide so far this year.
“Damage caused by ATVs along state roadways and rights-of-way has a bottom-line impact on the taxpayers,” Harris said in a release.
In 2008, the state spent more than $100,000 to repair slope damage caused by ATVs, so there is an obvious worsening trend. That’s why we’re working with local law enforcement to prevent illegal riding and to be good fiscal and environmental stewards.”
Goolsby said, “Ninety-nine percent of people who ride ATVs are good people. But it’s that one percent that does the destruction. ALDOT may make an embankment, let’s say, and it takes months to build. ATV drivers will destroy it in three hours.”
In addition to patrolling I-10, Ala. 158 and the new U.S. 98 bypass for ALDOT, deputies also have focused enforcement ef forts along the Escatawpa River, McDonald Road and Padgett Switch Road.
Goolsby said deputies, about six to 10 a shift, ride on horseback, in boats and in vehicles to spot drivers beckoned by wooded areas, dirt roads and construction zones.
Though ALDOT just extended its hand to the Sheriff’s Office this month, Goolsby said, he and other deputies began combating illegal ATVs about three years ago after complaints began pouring in from residents whose property had been damaged.
“It’s been this way for a while,” Goolsby said. “It starts up in the spring each year and then after Labor Day, it calms down.
“Some have been riding for years, and their attitude is, ‘I didn’t do that damage, I’m just riding the trail,’” he continued. “Every one of them is actually doing the damage. They are compounding the damage.”

New York City NY April 29 2009 MYFOXNY
The New York Police Department is shrinking, and the department can’t hire the number of cops it would like to.
Fox 5 News has learned that help is coming from security screeners at the area airports.
They’ll be replacing some police officers in the subway who do bag searches.
But some critics say this is just another clear example that the economy has affected security.
Within the next two months, Transportation Security Administration bag screeners from Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark Liberty airports will be replacing most NYPD cops in the subway that screen bags for explosives.
Because of the police officer shortage, the NYPD needs to take these police officers and put them on the street to fight crime.
The TSA would not confirm this program is taking place, but did tell Fox 5 News that a program like this would not affect safety at area airports.
This is how it would work: About 30 TSA screeners a day will be pulled from the three area airports Monday through Friday to inspect bags at various subway locations throughout the city.
At each location they’ll be teamed up with one police officer instead of the two or three officers you currently see at inspection sites.
The Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association is blasting the plan, saying despite the city’s financial crisis the city needs to hire more cops.
According to the PBA, the city has 4,000 fewer cops on the street than it did in 2001.
“There are not enough police officers in New York City to effectively fight crime and terrorism simultaneously and (having to implement) this kind of program is verification of that fact,” the PBA said in a statement.
Plus the union says searching bags in a subway could turn “dangerous and deadly,” which TSA screeners aren’t trained or armed to handle.
The TSA workers have had three hours of classroom training regarding legal issues and subway safety and three hours of training on the equipment used to screen bags.
Officials, the NYPD has said this not a done deal yet, even though sources have told Fox 5 that it is going to happen.

Rocklin CA April 29 2009
Early Sunday morning, Roseville Police officers arrested a woman on suspicion of carjacking and several other charges.
At 1:11 a.m. Sunday, April 26, Roseville Police officers responded to a carjacking that had just occurred in the parking lot of Kaiser Hospital, 1600 Eureka Rd.
A 74-year-old Carmichael man reported that he had just parked his Mazda sedan when he was approached by a woman who demanded his car keys, threatening that she would stab him with an HIV-contaminated needle if he didn’t comply. No needle or other weapon was seen. The victim relinquished his keys to the suspect, and she got into the car and drove away.
Kaiser’s security staff followed the stolen vehicle, keeping Roseville police dispatchers informed about its location until Roseville Police officers arrived in the area.

Officers stopped and arrested the suspect in the 9800 block of Wesbourne Way in Granite Bay.
Amber Arlene Page, 29, no permanent address, was arrested on suspicion of carjacking, robbery, vehicle theft, making criminal threats, assault with a deadly weapon, recklessly evading a police officer, resisting arrest and driving under the influence of alcohol.

STOCKTON, CA April 28 2009- Stockton police said a suspected robber was fatally shot by an armored truck employee who interrupted a robbery at a bank just outside Weberstown Mall Monday morning.
Police said events unfolded just after 11:30 a.m. at the Bank of the West in the shopping center parking lot, which is located at 4950 Pacific Avenue.
According to police, the armored car employee entered the bank just as the robbery was taking place. There was a confrontation, police said, and the alleged robber, a man in his 30s, was shot. He did not survive, police said.
Diane Kern was at a bank teller’s window when the shooting happened behind her.
“All of a sudden I heard a bang, and between the two of us, we jumped. It’s scary. I turned around and he was laying there on the ground,” Kern said.
For much of the day, police investigators detained and questioned a woman who was with the suspected bank robber. She didn’t go in the bank, and police said she didn’t know a robbery was taking the place. She was the wife of the dead man and will not be arrested, police said.
